    Coat Topshop | Dress Oh My Love at Topshop | Shoes New Look | Clutch John Lewis | Watch Olivia Burton Watches | Bracelet C/O Links of London

    The end of 2014 saw me welcome black in to my wardrobe. No, not the gothic style but more the sophisticated, understated type of black. I’ve always been the type of person who has embraced colour and never shied away from all the bright hues. But, as I’m growing older I felt I needed to accept a little more sophistication  in the style area. Getting to 25 seemed to be a difficult one for me, but it saw me take the plunge and cut my hair to a mid bob which was a million miles away from my long tresses pre quarter life century mark. I realised that I am ready to bring an air of class in to what I wear & this dress from the Oh My Love Range from Topshop was going to be one of my first experiments. Have you hit a landmark age & realised you needed to do something drastic?

    Camel Coat Hand me down | Breton Top Zara | Chinos Mango | Shoes Primark | Scarf Barbour

    Tartan & breton stripes have to be my perfect combination. Are you all with me on that one? I don’t know about you, but when Autumn comes I love to mix patterns to create a brighter and stand out look against all the tree’s & plants that have browned over.

    There is something ever so ‘’Parisian’’ about this look that I can imagine walking down Montmartre & taking in the sights of the Eiffel Tower and drinking tea in quaint little coffee shops.

    I have been lusting over the camel coloured coats recently and could not believe my luck when my little sister decided to pass on her coat to me (there is nothing I love more than a hand me down so I can give it a new lease of life!) this has firmly stayed on recently and never want to take it off it’s that cosy!

    My shoes are also a particular favourite of mine too! These faux snake skin shoes were a steal from Primark recently and they have not come off my feet. So comfy & versatile they can do no wrong in my eyes!

    How would you style breton stripes or tartan would clash like I have?

    Jacket C/O WearAll.com | Shirt Zara (eBay) | Trousers Topshop | Shoes New Look | Rings 770diamonds & Primark

    I adore paisley print. People may associate it with Festivals and a summer vibe but I don’t see why you can’t bring it 100mph in to Autumn? For me it’s a delicate print and all the different lines, swirls and mini patterns send me in to a wondrous frenzy because you never know where it will go.

    I recently picked up this gorgeous chiffon Zara shirt from eBay & I blagged it as cheap as chips. I was too excited to receive it & I gave it my first outing last week. I have to say I’m always a little cautious with shirts but this one fit just right and I felt fabulous in it.

    I teamed with my black leathers because why not? They a super flattering and elongate your legs. What more could you possibly want from a pair of trousers?

    My black barely there heels from New Look always manage to complete a look perfectly, probably because they are just so elegant and effortless.

    For those cooler nights I would wear a light jacket, purely because I get too hot with anything else. This zip detail waterfall jack from WearAll.com is perfect to just pop on over an outfit and I love the shape to it, it’s so slimming! It really creates that androgynous, tailored style.

    Last but not least, where would an outfit be without a little accessorising? I picked up these midi rings from Primark recently and I have found myself wearing them all the time! They complimented the darker, autumnal tones to the outfit.7

    Boucle Jacket Boohoo Boutique (eBay) | Top New Look (eBay) | Skirt H&M (eBay) | Shoes Primark

    Yes. As you guessed it from the title, I love a good boucle jacket & this one is not to be ignored! As you know I spend A LOT of my spare time browsing through eBay trying to find all the trends at a fraction of the price. Some say I am ‘’The Thrifty Shopping Queen’’ and it’s a title I quite like thank you very much.

    When I won this jacket for a mere £2.99 (plus postage!) I was more than excited to try it on and wear it out. I love the blue & white porcelain style to it, the jacket is a little different to what you would find on the high street & that is one of the main reasons I love it! I don’t like to wear something that is off the shelf and readily available and if I do I like to give it my own twist.

    I paired it with a little crop top and lace cream skirt to keep it quite cute and girly! I love the way my heels completely elongate my legs (Yep, I think I just got a cheeky #ILoveMyselfBecause… hashtag in there!)

    All in all this outfit came under £20 and I think it is great for a lovely lunch date or even office wear! The jacket is so versatile and could jazz up any outfit!

    How would you style this jacket?

    Leather Jacket Quiz | Necklace Topshop | Jumpsuit C/O Wal-G | Heels New Look

    When the Wal-G package landed on my doorstep I was ready to get my game face on and style something that is a little bit unusual to what I would normally style. I was sent the pale green jumpsuit, which, in all fairness isn’t something that wouldn’t tend to flatter my rather large bosom nor my hips which subsequently resemble a woman who should have given birth to 100 children by now.

    Ever the optimist I set to it by digging out my leather jacket to give it a slightly edgier feel & I must say I was pretty happy with the results. Rather than draw unwanted attention to certain areas of my body it accentuated them which I was most pleased with. Add a pair of barely there heels to create a sophisticated, glamorous look! I accessorised with a thick, chunky necklace from Topshop which completed this look.

    The whole ”pyjama” style look is on trend at the moment so it felt great that I could actually rock this look despite my curvaceous figure! I say give it a go, you might be pleasantly surprised with the outcome!
    How would you style it?
